Copying & Mailing Costs

Those seeking public records may choose whether to have the record duplicated upon paper, upon the same medium in which the public record is kept, or upon any other medium on which the office determines that the record can reasonably be duplicated as an integral part of the office’s normal operations. The requester will be charged only the actual cost of making copies, not labor. Please see the fee schedule listed below for the cost of copies. If an outside vendor must be used to reproduce the requested material, there will be an additional charge of the actual cost charged by that outside vendor.

Use of an Outside Vendor

If an outside vendor must be used to reproduce the request audio and/or video recording, there will be an additional charge of the actual cost/charged by that outside vendor.
